DOROTHY'S NEIGHBORS. 

A brand new comedy in four acts, by Marie Doran, author of "The 
New Co-Ed," "Tempest and Sunshine," and many other successful 
plays. 4 males. 7 femalec. The scenes are extremely easy to 
arrange; two plain interiors and one exterior, a garden, or, if neces- 
sary, the two interiors will answer. Costumes modern. Plays 2^1 
hours. 

The story is about vocational training, a subject now widely dis- 
cussed; also, the distribution of larj^e wealth. 

Back of the comedy situation and snappy dialogue there is good 
logic and a sound moral in this pretty play, which is worthy the 
attention of the experienced amateur. It is a clean, wholesome play, 
particularly ^suited to high school production, Price, 30 Cents. 



MISS SOMEBODY ELSE. 

A modern play in four acts by Marion Short, author of "The 
Touchdown," etc. 6 males. 10 females. Two interior scenes. Cos- 
tumes modern. Plays 2J4 hours. 

This delightful comedy has gripping dramatic mnmeni?. unusual 
character types, a striking and original plot and is essentially modern 
in theme and treatment. The stcry concerns the advetures of Con- 
stance Darcy, a multi-mill'onaire's young daughter. Constance em- 
barks on a trip to find a young man who had been in her father's 
employ and had stolen a large sum of money. She almost succeeds, 
when suddenly all traces of the ycung men are lost. At this point 
she meets some old friends who ere living in almost want and, in 
order to assist them through motives benevolent, she determines to 
sink her own aristocratic personality in that of a refined but humble 
little Irish waitress with the family that are in want. She not only 
carries her scheme to success in assisting the family, but _ finds 
romance and much tense and lively adventure during the pericd of 
her incognito, aside from capturing the young man who had defrauded 
her father. The story' is full of bright comedy lines and dramatic 
situations and is highly recommended for amateur production. This 
is one of the best comedies we have ever offered with a large num- 
ber of female characters. The dialogue is bright and the play is full 
of action from start to finish; not a dull moment in it. This is a 
great .comedy for high schools and colleges, and the wholesome story 
will please the parents and teachers. We strongly recommend it. 

Price, 30 Cents.

The Birthday Ball 



Scene. — A Colonial living-room in Washington, 

D. C. 
Time. — The 20th of February, 1792. 

(Enter Penelope in a very ill humor. Indeed, she 
is pouting ; and after flouncing about the room, 
she stamps her foot and sits dozmi at the left 
with a bounce. Enter Phoebe and Phylts 
with their arms around each other. Both are 
sniffing and crying a little. Phoebe sits at the 
right and Phylis flops down on the floor be- 
side her. The three girls make a very picture 
of zvoe — tableau.) 

Penelope. It is just too bad ! Here it is already 
the twentieth and no invitation to General Washings- 
ton's birthday ball. Everybody will be there. Oh, 
we shall be shamed completely ! 

Phoebe. (Wiping her eyes) How can you ex- 
pect an invitation, Sister Penelope, when Mother 
has not let it be known that we have returned to 
town? Madam Washington would never slight us 
knowingly. 

Ppiylis. (Tearfully ) Mother says it would be 
forward for her to announce our return on the eve 
of the ball. It might look as if we angled for an 
invitation. 



4 THE BIRTHDAY BALL 

Penelope. And just think of our beautiful new 
gowns that Mistress Winthrop made for us in Plym- 
outh ! What's the use of them, I should like to 
know ! 

(Enter Madam Bradley, very motherly and digni- 
fied. She stands in the center of the room and 
regards the three mourners with sympathy and 
understanding. But she knows her duty and 
speaks gently and firmly) 

Madam Bradley. My daughters ? 

(The three girls rise and curtsey dutifully, hut turn 
their faces azvay, still pouting.) 

Madam Bradley. You have been taught, my 
dears, that idle hands find mischief still to do. This 
is also true of idle brains. Have you attended your 
household duties this morning? 

All Three. (Sotto voce) No, Mother. 

Madam Bradley. When I was young 

(Phoebe places her chair for Madam Bradley. j 

Madam Bradley. Thank you, my daughter. 
(She sits) When I was young, I rose at six and 
aired my chamber ; then descended to the dining- 
room and laid the breakfast cloth under the direc- 
tion of my respected mother, your grandmother. 
After the meal, if the weather was fine, the family 
repaired to the rose garden for half an hour before 
separating for the morning tasks. On Mondays, the 
linen was inspected and mended before being sent 
to the tubs ; on Tuesdays, the house was swept, 
oiled and waxed from top to bottom, all the serv- 
ants helping ; on Wednesdays, the ales and vinegars 
were brewed ; on Thursdays, the tallow and wax 
for candle-making, both plain and Bayberry, were 



THE BIRTHDAY BALL 5 

prepared for moulding- (other duties, such as pre- 
serving-, superseding these in season) ; on Fridays, 
the week's baking was done — bread, white and rye, 
cake of three kinds, plain, frosted and with caraway 
seed, and pies of four kinds according as the seasons 
allowed ; on Saturdays, all was put in order for the 
Sabbath, and my mother took me with her to the 
shops and markets, in the carriage, with two of the 
maids to help with the parcels. On different days, 
my instructors for the French language, the spinnet 
and the minuet, came at ten o'clock, detaining me 
for an hour and a half. In the afternoons, my 
mother instructed me, also the maid servants, in 
spinning, weaving, knitting and embroidery. 

Phylis. (With a great sigh) Oh, Mother, how 
could you ever get all those things done ? 

Madam Bradley. (Gently) I wasted no time 
in sighing for those things which decorum will not 
allow. 

(The three girls exchange guilty glances.) 

Madam Bradley. (Rising) Madam Washing- 
ton is a very elegant and noble-hearted lady, my 
daughters. If Providence permit that she should 
hear of our arrival, I make no doubt we shall be 
bidden to the great General's birthday ball. If not, 
I would not for all the balls in Christendom have 
you appear unseemly in her eyes. (Exit) 

Penelope. (Flopping into her chair again) Well, 
that does settle it. 

Phoebe. (Crossly) I do not believe General 
Washington is so wise as men say, after all. If 
he were, he would certainly know that we should 
return for the ball. 

Phylis. (In horror) Oh, Sister Phoebe, do not 
say such dreadful things ! 

Penelope. (Sitting up straight suddenly) In 



6 THE BIRTHDAY BALL 

sooth, little one, there is some wisdom in what Sis- 
ter Phoebe says. Even if the General did tell no lie 
when he hewed down his father's favorite cherry- 
tree, and did tame wild horses when only sixteen 
years of age, and did beat back the British in Free- 
dom's name, that is no sign he would remember 
girls like us. 

Phylis. (Softly) And of course, he could not 
know that we had new silk gowns of Mistress Win- 
throp in Plymouth town. (All three girls sigh 
deeply) 

(Enter Cicily. She curtsies before addressing 
each young lady.) 

Phoebe. (Looking round zvith a start) Oh, 'tis 
only Cicily ! My heart goes pit-a-pat for news each 
time a door is opened. 

Cicily. Please, Mistress Penelope, Madam says 
you are to mend the rent you made in your second 
best shawl yesterday. (Exit PenelopeJ 

Cicily. Please, Miss Phoebe, Madam says you 
are to come put away the clean linen. (Exit 
PhoebeJ 

Cicily. Please, Miss Phylis, Madam says you 
are to get out the flower seed saved from last year, 
and prepare new labels for the gardner. (Exit 
PhylisJ 

Cicily. (Wistfully, to herself) I wish Madam 
Washington's maid would invite me to come and 
watch below stairs as the fine ladies come up in 
their beautiful gowns to his Excellency's birthday 
ball. (Pause, while she dreams her little dream) 
Mayhap, some day, I, too, shall dance the minuet. 
(She dances slowly out of the room) 

(Enter Madam Bradley with overflowing basket of 
stockings. She sits center and darns industri- 



THE BIRTHDAY BALL 7 

ously. A knocking sounds without. Enter 
CicilyJ 

CiciLY. (Curtseying) Please, Madam, General 
Washington's footman waits without. 
Madam Bradley. Admit him. 

(Exit CiciLY and re-enters with the Footman. He 
bozvs low, handing Cicily a large square letter. 
She receives it on a silver salver and hands it 
to Madam Bradley zvith a curtsey. Madam 
Bradley opens and reads it, and rises with great 
dignity.) 

Madam Bradley. The answer will be at once 
prepared. (Exit) 

(Cicily, glancing coquettishly at the Footman, 
moves tozvard the other side of the room. The 
Footman primps himself, eyeing her.) 

Footman. Did I not see you at Merry Mount 
Fair last Whitsuntide? 

Cicily. (Tossing her head) You are bold, sir. 

Footman. (Gallantly) Faint heart never won 
fair lady. 

Cicily. Oh, hush! If Madam Bradley should 
hear you, I should be disgraced. 

Footman. She is most busy writing an accept- 
ance to his Excellency's birthday party and hears 
nothing. 

Cicily. (Clasping her hands) Would that I 
could be there to watch below stairs! 

Footman. Then so you shall, sweet. No fine 
dame among them will have a neater foot than thine, 
I'll warrant. Come, tread with me the measures of 
a minuet. (Music sounds off, and they dance) 

Madam Bradley. (Off) Cicily! Where are 
you, girl ? I would have you bid my daughters come 
to me in the common-room. 



8 THE BIRTHDAY BALL 

CiciLY. (Breaking off in a fright) Lud ! If 
we're observed ! Stand still, man ! 

The Footman tries to kiss her, hut she pushes him 
away and runs out. He draws himself up as 
Madam Bradley enters zvith the anszver. She 
gives it to him. He bozvs and exits. Enter 
Penelope^ Phoebe and Phylis quickly with 
flushed, excited faces.) 

Phylis. Dh, Mother ! 

Penelope. Did it really come, Mother? 

Phoebe. We must have out our new gowns for 
pressing directly. 

Madam Bradley. (Trying to look severe) I 
fear Cicily has overstepped herself with much chat- 
tering. 

Phylis. Nay, Mother! We made her say who 
had come. 

All Three. (Clustering round Madam Brad- 
ley j Oh, Mother, please tell us! 

Madam Bradley. (Smiling) You give me no 
speaking space. 

(The girls fall hack a hit and Madam Bradley 
drazvs the letter from her reticule and reads.) 

Madam Bradley. (Reading) "President Wash- 
ington and Lady desire the honor of Madam Brad- 
ley's presence with that of her lovely daughters, 
Mistresses Penelope, Phoebe and Phylis, upon the 
celebration of his Excellency's birthday at Mount 
Vernon on February the twenty-second, seventeen 
hundred ninety-two." 

(The^ three girls clap their hands with little coos of 
joy; then join hands and dance round Madam 
Bradley, j 



THE BIRTHDAY BALL 9 

Madam Bradley. (Shaking her head) Idle 
again, my dears ! You had far better be practicing 
the measures of the stately minuet. To dance it too 
well were impossible. 

(The three girls fall apart.) 

Phoebe. Oh, yes ! We'll practice it this minute. 

Phylis. Mother, will you be my partner? 

Madam Bradley. (Smiling) Come, come! I 
am too old ! 

All Three Girls. No, no! You must foot it 
with us. 

(All take their places.) 

Penelope. (Frisking where she stands) Oh, I 
am so happy ! 

(Music sounds off and they dance the minuet,) 
CURTAIN 



THE REJUVENATION OF AUNT MARY. 

The famous comedy in three acts, by Anne Warner. 7 males, 6 
females. Three interior scenes. Costumes modern. Plays 2% hours. 

This is a genuinely funny comedy with splendid parts for "Aunt 
Mary," "Jack," her lively nephew; "Lucinda," a New England an- 
cient maid of all work; "Jack's" three chums; the Girl "Jack" loves; 
"Joshua," Aunt Mary's hired man, etc. 

"Aunt Mary" was played by May Robson in New York and on tour 
for over two years, and it is sure to be a big success wherever pro- 
duced. We strongly recommend it. Price, 60 Cents. 



MRS. BUMSTEAD-LEIGH. 

A pleasing comedy, in three acts, by Harry James Smith, author of 
"The Tailor-Made Man." 6 males, 6 females. One interior scene. 
Costvimes modern. Plays 2J4 hours. 

Mr. Smith chose for his initial comedy the complications arising 
from the endeavors of a social climber to land herself in the altitude 
peopled by hyphenated names — a theme permitting innumerable com- 
plications, according to the spirit of the writer. 

This most successful comedy was toured for several seasons by Mrs. 
Fiske with enormous success. Price, 60 Cents. 



MRS. TEMPLE'S TELEGRAM. 

A most successful farce in three acts, by Frank Wyatt and Wil- 
liam Morris. 5 males, 4 females. One interior scene stands through- 
out the three acts. Costumes modern. Plays 2>2 hours. 

"Mrs. Temple's Telegram"' is a sprightly farce in which there is 
an abundance of fun without any taint of impropriety or any ele- 
ment of offence. As noticed by Sir Walter Scott, "Oh, v/hat a 
tangled web we v/eave when first we practice to deceive." 

There is not a dull moment in the entire farce, and from the time 
the^ curtain rises until it makes the final drop the fun is fast and 
furious. A very exceptional farce. Price, 60 Cents. 



THE NEW CO-ED. 

A comedy in four acts, by Marie Doran, author of "Tempest and 
Sunshine," etc. Characters, 4 males, 7 females, though any number 
of boys and girls can be introduced in the action of the play. One 
interior and one exterior scene, but can be easily played in one inte- 
rior scene. Costumes modern. Time, about 2 hours. 

The theme of this plaj' is the coming of a new student to the col- 
lege, her reception by the scholars, her trials and final triumph. 

There are three especially good girls' parts, Letty, Madge and 
Estelle, but the others have plenty to do. "Punch" Doolittle and 
George Washington Watts, a gentleman of color, are two particularly 
good comedy characters. We can strongly recommend "The New 
Co-Ed" to high schools and amateurs. Price, 30 Cents.

BILLETED. 

A comedy m 3 acts, by F, Tennison Jesse and H. Harwood. 4 
males, 5 females. One easy interior seen-. A charming comedy, 
constructed with uncommon skill, and abounds with clever lines. 
Margaret Anglin's bi^ success. Amateurs will find this comedy easy 
to produce and popular with all audiences. Price, 60 Cents. 



NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH. 

A comedy in 3 acts. By James Montgomery. 5 males, 6 females. 
Costumes, modern. Two interior scenes. Plays 2^ hours. 

Is it possible to tell the absolute truth — even for twenty-four hours? 
It is— at least Bob Bennett, the hero of "Nothing But the Truth," 
accomplished the feat. The bet he made with his business partners, 
and the trouble he got into — with his partners, his friends, and his 
fiancee — this is the subject of William Collier's tremendous comedy 
hit. "Nothing But the Truth" can be whole-heartedly recommended 
as one of the most sprightly, amusing and popular comedies that this 
country can boast. Price, 60 Cents. 



IN WALKED JIMMY. 



A comedy in 4 acts, by Minnie Z. Jaffa. 10 males, 2 females (al- 
though any number of males and females may be used as clerks, 
etc.). Two interior scenes. Costumes, modern. Plays 2J/^ hours. 
The thing into which Jimmy walked was a broken-down shoe factory, 
whe^i the clerks had all been fired, and when the proprietor v/as in 
serious contemplation of suicide. 

Jimmy, nothing else but plain Jimmy, would have been a mysterious 
figure had it not been for his matter-of-fact m_anner, his smile and 
his everlasting humanness. He put the shoe business on its feet, won 
the heart of the girl clerk, saved her erring brother from jail, escaped 
that place as a permanent boarding house himself, and foiled the 
villain. 

Clean, v/holesome comedy with just a touch of human nature, just 
a dash of excitement and more than a little bit of true philosophy 
make "In Walked Jimmy" one cf the most delightful of plays. 
Jimmy is full of the religion of life, the religion of happiness and 
the religion of helpfulness, and he so permeates the atmosphere with 
his "religion" that everyone is happy. The spirit of optimism, good 
cheer, and hearty laughter dominates the play. There is net a dull 
moment in any of the four acts. We strongly recommend it. 

Price, 60 Cents. 



MARTHA BY-THE-DAY. 

An optimistic .comedy in three acts, by Julie M. Lippmann, author 
of the "Martha" stories. 5 males, 5 females. Three interior scenes. 
Costumes modern. Plays 2J^ hours. 

It is altogether a gentle thing, this play. It is full of quaint hu- 
mor, old-fashioned, homely sentiment, the kind that people who see 
the play will recall and chuckle over to-morrow and the next day. 

Miss Lippmann has herself adapted her very successful book for 
stage service, and in doing this has selected from her novel the most 
telling incidents, infectious comedy and homely sentiment for the 
play, and the result is thoroughly delightful. Price, 60 Cents.

The Return of Hi Jinks 

A comedy in four acts, by Marii)n Short, author of '"The Varsity 
Coach," "The Touch-Down." etc. 6 males, 8 females. Costumes 
modern. One interior scene. 

This comedy is founded upon and elaborated from a farce comedy 
in two acts written by J. H. Horta, and originally produced at Tuft's 
College. 

Hiram Poynter Jinks, a Junior in Hoosic College (Willie Collier 
type), and a young moving picture actress (Mary Pickford type), are 
the leading characters in this lively, modern farce. 

Thomas Hodge, a Senior, envious of the popularity of Jinks, wishes 
to think up a scheme to throw ridicule upon him during a visit of 
the Hoosic Glee Club to Jinks's home town. Jinks has obligingly acted 
as a one-day substitute in a moving picture play, in which there is a 
fire scene, and this gives Hodge his cue. He sends what seems to 
be a bona fide account of Jink's heroism at a Hoosic fire to Jink's 
home paper. Instead of repudiating his laurels as expected. Jinks 
decides to take a flyer in fame, confirms the fake story, confesses to 
being a hero and is adored by all the girls, to the chagrin and dis- 
comfiture of Hodge. Of course, the truth comes out at last, but 
Jinks is not hurt thereby, and his romance with Mimi Mayflower 
conies to a successful termination. 

This is a great comedy for amateurs. It is full ©f funny situations 
and is sure to please. Price, 30 Cents. 



June 



A most successful comedy-drama in four acts, by Marie Doran, 
author of "The New Cn-Ed," "Tempest and Sunshine," "Dorothy's 
Neighbors," etc. 4 males, 8 females. One interior scene. Costumes 
modern. Plays 2% hours. 

This play has a very interesting group of young people. June is 
an appealing little figure, an orphan living with her aunt. There are 
a number of delightful, life-like characters: the sorely tried likeabb; 
Mrs. Hopkins, the amusing, haughty Miss Banks of the glove depart- 
ment, the lively Tilly and Milly, who work in the store, and ambitious 
Snoozer; Mrs. Hopkins's only son, who aspires to be President of the 
United States, but finds his real sphere is running the local trolley 
car. The play is simplicity itself in the telling' of an every-day story, 
and the scenic requirements call for only .one set, a room in the 
boarding house of Mrs. Hopkirfs, while an opportunity is afforded to 
introduce any number of extra characters. Musical numbers may be 
introduced, if desired. Price, 30 Cents. 

Tempest and Sunshine 

A comedy drama in four acts, by Marie Doran. .t males and 3 
females. One exterior and three interior scenes. Plays about 2 hours. 

Every school girl has revelled in the sweet simplicity and gen,tle- 
ness of the characters interwoven in the charms that Mary J. Holmes 
command^ in her story of "Tempest and Sunshine." We can strongly 
recommend this play as one of the best plays for high school ' pro- 
duction published in recent years. Price, i'd Cents.

tumes modern. One interior scene througL^^v mv i/ra/. ±iine, ayi 
hours. 

This play, written for the use of clever amateurs, is the story of 
life in Siddell, a Pennsylvania co-educational college. It deals with 
the vicissitudes and final triumph of the Siddell Football Eleven, and 
the humorous and dramatic incidents connected therewith. 

"The Touch-Down" has the true varsity atmosphere, college songs 
are sung, and the piece is lively and entertaining throughout. High 
schools will make no mistake in producing this play. We strongly 
recommend it as a high-class and well-written comedy. 

Price, 30 Cents. 

Hurry; Hurry^ Hurry 

A comedy in three acts, by LeRoy Arnold. 5 males, 4 females. 
One interior scene. Costumes modern. Plays 2^4 hours. 

The story is based on the will of an eccentric aunt. It stipulates 
that her pretty niece must be affianced before she is twenty-one. and 
married to her fiance within a year, if she is to get her spinster 
relative's million. Father has nice notions of honor and fails to tell 
daughter about the will, so that she may make her choice untram- 
meled by any other consideration than that of trile love. The action 
all takes place in the evening the midnight of which will see her 
reach twenty-one. Time is therefore short, and it is hurry, hurry, 
hurry, if she is to become engaged and thus save her father from 
imi)ending bankruptcy. 

The situations are intrinsically funny and the dialogue is sprightly. 
The characters are natural and unaffected and the action moves with 
a snap such as should be expected from its title. Price, 30 Cents. 

The Varsity Coach 

A three-act jilay of college life, by Marion Short, speciallj' adapted 
to performance by amateurs or high school students. 5 males 6 
females, but any number of boys and girls may be introduced in the 
action of the play. Two settings necessary, a college boy's room and 
the university campus. Time, about 2 hours. 

Like many anotlicr college boy, "Bob" Selby, an all-round popular 
college man. becomes possessed of the idea that athletic prowess is 
more to be desired than scholarship. He is surprised in the midst of 
^ ".spread" in his room in Regatta week by a visit from his aunt 
who is putting him through college. Aunt Serena, "a lady of the old 
school and the dearest little woman in the whole world," has hastened 
to make this visit to her adored nephew under the mistaken impression 
that he is about to receive the Fellowes prize for scholarship. Her 
i3;rief and chagrin when she learns that instead of the prize Robert 
has received "a pink card," which is equivalent to suspension for poor 
scholarship, gives a touch of pathos to an otherwise jolly comedy of 
college life. How the repentant Robert more than redeems himself, 
carries off honors at the last, and in the end wins Ruth, the faithful 
little sweetheart of the "Prom" and the classroom, makes a story of 
dramatic interest and brings out very clearly certain phases of modern 
college life. There are several opportunities for the introduction of 
college songs and "stunts." Price, 30 Cents.
